This workshop and accompanying handout presents “The
Chinuch Secret” – a simple concept called
“overlearning”. This mesorah based technique
emphasizes the importance of repeatedly reviewing skills and
concepts until they become automatic to a child. When this
happens, the student gains fluency, and does not have to devote
so much brain power to the basic understanding and decoding of
the word or concept at hand. He can instead employ higher order
thinking and comprehension. This technique can produce
substantial qualitative and quantitative gains in kriah, Chumash,
Gemara, and more. This audio runs about 45 minutes, and together
with the handout, will be a valuable resource to teachers. The
handout is available as a pdf download. |
